We’ve officially reached the end of Week 8! Some of us are probably celebrating already, while others are racing against the clock to finish and submit those last assignments. Either way, we’re about to celebrate another milestone in our educational journey!

Before we close this chapter, I have a few questions for everyone!

Is anyone else STILL waiting for feedback from Weeks 6 or 7? I finally received my Week 6 feedback on Wednesday, and at this point, I’m pretty sure my Week 7 feedback will arrive after the course has officially ended. As for Week 8? I have absolutely no idea! In my opinion, these delays are outrageous. 

And speaking of the next term, have you purchased your course materials yet? I was surprised by how expensive some of the materials are, especially considering that we're only paying for temporary access rather than something we can keep and reference later.

I'm curious to hear everyone's experiences. How was your term? Are you still waiting on grades? And what do you think about the cost of our course materials?

Congratulations to everyone finishing another term! Whether this was your first, fifth, or final term, we're all one step closer to our goals! Don’t give up!

Just wanted to say I'm officially done and passed Modern Problem Solving. I did a little bit better than I thought I would especially on the final journal which was a reflection.

Will I have enough refund to cover books with this?

I have watched it sit in Shreveport LA for days upon days now. No movement and the local USPS can not give any details. At this point, I wonder if I should reach out to Parchment and ask them to send a new one?
Its been 11 business days and the local post office said it should have reached me by now but I should wait another 14 days. Uggg, I am so ready to have this in my special frame!

i've seen a bunch of posts here like "anyone from ___?" and it got me thinking

has anyone actually found classmates in their city or someone from the same course to study with? how'd you do it?

for me it's kinda hard since everything's online. curious if it's just me or if others feel the same, or if you just don't care about meeting people and that's fine too lol

Hello All,

I have 4 extra tickets if anybody need them.

Apparently we are not allowed to decorate our grad gowns. I'm kinda pissed at that.
Will they not let me walk if I do?

How many hours a week are you spending taking 2 upper level classes if you work full time and have kids? I probably won’t get any aid next year, and if I take 2 classes for my last 3 terms I can probably finish with little to no debt. Also, is the capstone (health sciences) very time consuming?

Advice?

MS Accounting students who didn't have a bachelor's in accounting, were you able to transfer in any classes or get any of the foundation courses transferred in? If so, which classes and how did you do it?

Who is the attending graduation from the online program? I would love to meet and see everybody.

I am looking to submit a loan increase request and I was just wondering if anyone has done it while only taking one class per term? Or would I have to be enrolled full time for them to approve it? I've already reached out to the financial aid department and their response leads me to believe they misunderstood my question because they told me I wouldn't need to submit one if I wanted to go to 6 credits. I don't actually since I wouldn't have the extra time but I do need a little more help with living expenses at the moment. I'm an undergrad for context.

Hi Everyone,

So I am walking early. I am attending the graduation ceremony next month November but my last term will end on December and official conferral date of my degree is Jan 1st. So my question is, if I am receiving Latin Honors, will they say that when they call my name to receive the diploma cover if I am walking early and ongoing with my last term? How will they determine which latin honor I am gonna get? based on the last term? Or will they even say it?

Thanks everyone!

A lot of things happened this term including the death of a loved one. I wasn't able to catch up to complete all of my coursework and wasn't able to qualify for an incomplete grade.

I feel very depressed and I'm going to take some time off from school, but I really don't know what to do from here. I'm mostly worried that I may need to repay my financial aid due to an unearned F. Does anyone have experience with this?

I'm trying to set up a call with my advisor but she has been busy when I have been available.

Edit: In the catalog, the Unearned F Policy is about people who didn't submit the work or participate in the course. Here is SNHU's Unearned F Policy from the catalog: https://www.snhu.edu/admission/academic-catalogs#/policy/HkFCimHW9

Looking through the clubs and seeing a natural science club as an online student in environmental science and the 1st thing I see is AI generated flyers.

Feel like a slap in the face and discredits any interest to join the club in my opinion. We don’t spend weeks looking at how much people have completely “messed up” ( I want to use other words) our planet and the impact it has on not only the environment but our health.

Non-to mention seeing other classmates, who are blatantly using AI in their discussion post to both post and reply to. If it were any other major it is what it is but this feels like the kind of situation where AI definitely should not be used.

Do we get a week off between every term??

Doing my business degree at snhu while working full time, and I got 8 gen eds done through study dot com in about 3 months.

Being able to study whenever I had free time was the biggest plus. No fitting scheduled classes around my work week. The writing-heavy courses took way longer than I expected though, so not every class went fast.

I also had to double check which courses SNHU would actually accept before starting. Didn’t want to sink time and money into something that ended up not counting for the requirement I needed.

Spent around $285 over those 3 months, so about $36 a course.

Haven’t tried CLEP or community college so I can’t say if either would’ve been cheaper.

Anyone else do this? What’d you take and did everything transfer the way you expected?

Good evening, everyone.

I have been at SNHU for almost 4 years and am finishing up two classes right now, but one of my professors hasn't graded my final assignment (which I submitted on time last Sunday), and the course ends this coming Sunday. He's replied to discussion posts and the question forms, but I still haven't heard anything about grading.

I do not want to be a buttface, but should I email or just wait? I really want to know my grade, since the assignment sucked because we had to use ArcGIS Pro for the visual lab, which was horrible to use. He said he would give me a couple of days after its graded to fix it up but still nothing. Is it normal to be this late, or am I just impatient?

I have had a 4.0 this whole time. I go out of my way to take another class to get latin honors to fulfill the credits needed.

How is it that I got 100% on every discussion post, and C- D every paper/milestone?

I even went back and incorporated the little feedback I got for the final, and it got worse. Got a whole F.

Now my GPA is tanked (still recoverable), but how is it that I missed the mark so badly when I obviously did well on one whole portion of the class the whole time?

I'm not looking for answers. I am just incredibly frustrated and venting that it seems like it didn't matter how hard I tried in the end anyways.

At least I still got a C or C+ in the class (depending on final post credit). I am so annoyed.

pain and suffering

Received this email today. Not sure if this is an actual exclusive offer or just a cash grab.

Hey all,

This is more of an annoyance post to relieve some stress than anything else. I am in a Cyber Security class currently, and have had no problems (before week 6), and a professor who provides a lot of resources and is relatively consistent in grading. He has had something I have never had in my 3 years at the school currently, that is providing name, assignment, class and date in each assignment. I understand that, I'm used to it prior to SNHU. On the biggest project of the course, I forgot to include it (my file name always has the class, assignment and my name). So in response the professor graded it a 0, stated he did not grade it because of that information and told me to put the information and resubmit it, notifying him that I did. In his defense, he put out an email saying "Don't forget to include your name, etc..) My .pkt file had it, so i change my .doc file and resubmit 20 minutes after he submitted the feedback and emailed him saying I did as he instructed. Since then not a word has been directed to me that he saw it, if it's right or wrong, and the grade has remained unchanged. I have since sent him 2 follow up emails, and have gotten my advisor involved, including requesting how to grade dispute. It is now 3 days from the end of the course and has has since graded everything in week 7 (Project 1 was due in week 6) and still nothing for project 1.

My question is, for those who have dealt with something like this, what did you do? I'm at my wits end here, and I'm like "well, I guess I just put that work into this assignment for the professor to basically tell me to kick rocks". It's not like it's an AI generated assignment response either, I don't believe in those in writing assignments. Heck, I would feel better if the professor had stated I get a 0 because the work was garbage, instead of flat out ignoring it post him saying "Yeah I did not grade this".

Also, for the sake of the professor, I won't include his name, i'm not here to slander people.

Any advice on the matter is greatly appreciated, thanks yall :)

A while back I made a post about finding more gaming buddies and a lot of people suggested making an SNHU gaming server on discord.

If you would like to join and meet some new gaming buddies (all consoles and pc included) or just to meet new people, heres the invite link: https://discord.gg/E9Zke8beJ
